A similar vid regarding a US unit and their fire-discipline was discussed here at SWC a few months ago.
Someone suggested then that it may have had something to do with putting on a show for the benefit of the camera. That may have been the case here; especially with that silly ‘mad minute’ at the end.
I wonder if there may also sometimes be a bit of frustration among these young heavily armed troops just wanting to make some noise in spite of stringent ROE and their inability to actually see the enemy and get stuck into them.
And by the way, that FKY-K spigot mortar sure is a quiet little weapon.
